About Carl
Biography
I am an experienced litigator that started my law firm to help people who found themselves in unfortunate circumstances. The focus of my practice is bankruptcy, debtor harassment, criminal defense, and family law. I’ve been successful in civil court with both obtaining direct verdicts and having directed verdicts vacated. I have a history of success in criminal defense and debt harassment suits, ending with settlements that satisfied my clients.
I work hard for my clients. Let me work hard for you.
